I too have a low cost basis, averaging around $17. I first bought in 1997 at around $20, then added in 1998 at levels down to $15. I'm holding firmly.

My view is that while in the short/medium term the stock may possibly be ahead of itself, and would be vulnerable if there is a biotech correction, in the long term this stock has a good chance to be one of the crown jewels of biotech. They certainly are one of the most ambitious of the biotechs, and their execution to date has been flawless. Both their science and their management is widely perceived as being as good as anything in biotechland.

In the very short term, anything to do with genomics is red hot, and MLNM is as good a place to be as any to take advantage of this current craze.

Hadn't followed the RS MLNM ratings. Who's their MLNM analyst - Mike King? My guess is that at very worst they'll give it an enthusiastic long term rec and a cautious short term one because of the price appreciation. (Kind of like what they did for CELG last week when initiating coverage).
